Howdy

Micah lives in Northern California with his wife Lindsey, daughter Norah and son Ethan.

Micah is a freelance documentary photographer represented by Redux Pictures photo agency in NYC and Vault Archives. He specializes in and is passionate about difficult-to-access regions in Africa, the Middle East, North America, and often times under-covered issues.

His most recent work in Southern Algeria captured the intensity of the deserted area, the insecurity in the region, as well as the role of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic’s rebels in one of the most dangers axes in the world.

Micah is a grantee from the Pulitzer Center for Crisis Reporting to work in Africa’s largest dump site, Dandora. He also won 1st Prize from World Press Photo, Contemporary Issues on his work in Dandora as well as National Geographic Magazine’s annual photo contest.
